I thought it was kind of weird, too. If this trend continues, they might want to consider renaming the channel to Asa & Priscilla... or A&P
I can guarantee that if anyone asks about the Dr's appointment... P will be the first one to say that it's out of respect for Abbie's privacy (altho, they seem to do a lot of things that don't respect her privacy). Granted, I think it's reasonable not to include detailed info/footage of her Dr's visits. But they could just do like they've done in the past: Say what she's going in for (in broad general terms), show them driving to the appt and then cut to them driving home talking about things a little bit. Who knows, maybe this appt was in regards to Abbie being on birth control and her whole time of the month thing. Which if that was the case, I can understand it a bit more.
I think the robbery either never happened or they were just looky-loo's and Ass-hat decided to make up a story about it. I also totally agree that Asa was trying to think of some way to divert attention away from things they've been getting called out on.
Ass-hat is most definitely not a hero. Not even close. He's a bullshitter who lies and spins situations to try to make himself look better. His whole thing about 'be better people'.... you ought to follow your own advice on that one, Asa.
